Pros
My boss was really good. Good health care and the stock program was alright. Retirement matching was great but with the caveat that it doesn't vest until 5 year mark.
Cons
The pay is quite low relative to my field. With 8 years of experience and a handful of advanced certs I was still making less than 100k. In this economic climate I just couldn't make that work anymore so I left when I got offered what I'm worth. The office felt depressing and I could go a whole week without anybody talking to me. It gave off a really weird vibe and made me hate going into the office. They would always say that going into the office is necessary for collaboration and team chemistry but my team had none. Their WFH policy when I interviewed and started was flexible but slowly started becoming more strict.
